Atletico Madrid Signs Juan Musso from Atalanta
Atletico Madrid has bolstered its goalkeeping ranks with the acquisition of Juan Musso from Atalanta. The Argentine goalkeeper joins the Spanish club on loan with an obligation to buy under specific sporting conditions.
Juan Musso leaves La Dea after three full seasons, during which time he played 99 Match across all competitions. He also has a further 104 outings from his time with Udinese between 2018 and 2021.
He was also part of the UEFA Europa League-winning Atalanta side under Gian Piero Gasperini last season, playing every game apart from the final group stage match on the way to an historic victory over Bayer Leverkusen.
Juan Musso also played in the UEFA Super Cup against Real Madrid earlier this month.
His transfer is part of a chain of moving goalkeepers, which has also seen Atletico send Horatiu Moldovan on loan to Sassuolo, Juan Musso moving to Atleti as his replacement and Rui Patricio joining Atalanta to cover the gap.
The 30-year-old is expected to serve as an understudy to first choice Goalkeeper Jan Oblak in Spain, while Marco Carnesecchi is now expected to be Atalanta’s no.1 in goal.
